Why the study?
5-Fluorouracil is a common cause of cardiotoxicity, but cases of acute reversible severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction challenge the current understanding of its underlying mechanisms.
5-fluorouracil therapy can cause acute, severe, but reversible left ventricular systolic dysfunction, highlighting the need for close cardiac monitoring in these patients.
